This paper presents an analysis of the evolution of engineering and its current impact on health and medicine. The bibliographic documentation is analyzed and the most relevant aspects that highlight engineering and its contribution to new clinical developments are shown. The results show that medicine has an evolutionary need to adapt to new technological developments and that engineering plays a fundamental role in the advancement of medical, health, and scientific processes in general.
Keywords: Engineering, technology, medical advances, health developments.

This paper discusses engineering options for understanding how extremophile organisms might shed light on the possibilities of life on other planets. The study of extremophiles is responsible for the life that can exist in highly hostile environments on Earth, such as volcanoes, arid deserts, or domains with high salt concentrations. Engineering could be the essential tool to know unexpected life scenarios so that developments in this sense are proposed. The proposed prototype is generated from the analysis of extremophiles so that an engineering development suitable for adaptation to complex environments and valuable for the best human living conditions is possible. The main results show that a design with these characteristics presents more advantages than other technologies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
